Chapter 620: I Shouldn’t Let Him Get What He Wants

At nine o’clock in the morning, Sheng Xiao received another call from Secretary He in his office.

“Brother, are you still planning to bring Sister to the state banquet? You know, your image is our image as well. It’s not that I look down on her. But at this point, it doesn’t seem right for her to make an appearance at the state banquet.”

“Secretary He.”

When Sheng Xiao was about to answer, Mu Qiqi tiptoed to his back and stole his phone away from him. “Don’t worry, Secretary He. I won’t go. I understand the situation.”

Sheng Xiao frowned disapprovingly. But Mu Qiqi laughed. “Don’t make all the decisions by yourself. You should ask for my opinion.

Sheng Xiao looked at her silently as she continued, “My birth is unchangeable. The fact that I have two fathers is also unchangeable. Although I don’t want to admit it, in this world, what people will say can be very terrifying. Xiaoxiao, facing the matter in a more mature way doesn’t hurt. I don’t have the confidence even if I go tonight. Because I will be protected under your wing. I don’t have the confidence to refute. So, can I just take a day off today?”

Sheng Xiao stared at Mu Qiqi for quite a while, then suddenly, he draped his arms on her shoulder and pulled her closer to him. “Do you know what you’re saying?”

“Of course,” Mu Qiqi replied. “Don’t make me go to the banquet feeling sorry. I will feel uncomfortable somehow. Just wait until the day I have proven myself to be worthy to be with you. Nobody will be able to stop me then, not even ten of Ye Jingchengs.”

“Don’t be so defeated before the interview. Why are you so sure you don’t have the confidence? In my heart, you are much better than those flamboyant rich young ladies. Why must you have such low confidence in yourself?”

“Because I don’t want your allies to be disappointed with you because of me.”

“So, you mean I can’t solve the problem of your image?”

They had been together for more than two years. And in the two years, they had never had disagreements over such a problem. But of course, Sheng Xiao had to admit that the little one always listened to him because she trusted him fully.

“You know I didn’t mean that. I just want to protect you. We’ve been together for so long and we’re even wearing our wedding rings now, but I have never done anything for you.”

Sheng Xiao did not say anything, but he could feel that the little thing’s wings were getting stronger.

She had started to have a standpoint and insisted on it.

“Chief, the interview is about to start.” At the door, the secretary did not know the two were having an argument, so he knocked on the door as a reminder.

Sheng Xiao withdrew his gaze and answered with a deep voice. “I know.”

“I’ll go for the interview now.” Mu Qiqi turned around, but after taking just a few steps, she returned to Sheng Xiao and hugged him tightly. “Don’t make yourself look so pitiful, okay? I’ll be sad.”

Sheng Xiao laughed coldly. “I really want to strip you naked and give you a good spank.”

“How about doing it after my interview?”

Then, Mu Qiqi walked out of Sheng Xiao’s office and followed behind the secretary. What else could Sheng Xiao do? He could only follow them.

The interview would be carried out in the VIP reception room in Zhongteng. It was going to be broadcasted live. Nowadays, there were many live broadcast platforms to provide updated information to satisfy the psychological needs of the viewers.

After a quick touch up of her makeup, Mu Qiqi sat in front of the camera. The person who was interviewing her was the best news journalist in the nation, Fang Lan.

She was very friendly and it could be seen that she was very well-educated.

“Miss Mu, when you are ready, you can make an ‘OK’ gesture. It’s a live broadcast today but don’t be nervous. Just answer my questions honestly.”

Mu Qiqi nodded and made an ‘OK’ with her hand.

And Fang Lan immediately reacted and started the introduction facing the camera.

“This is the ‘Real-life Chronicle Show’. Welcome, everyone, to our live interview today. I’m Fang Lan. Since yesterday, a woman, who is not a media figure, has topped the search results. She is not a celebrity, but she is the most talked-about person at the moment. Because of the explosive news these two days, we have invited the very person to our interview today. Please welcome Miss Mu Qiqi.”

Mu Qiqi looked at the camera and greeted the viewers.

“We are going to ask some sensitive questions today, Miss Mu. If you don’t want to answer the question, you can just tell us to skip it.”

Mu Qiqi nodded.

“First of all, what we really want to know, is whether or not the corpse, which was discovered yesterday morning, your sister?”

“No,” Mu Qiqi said immediately. “We’ve confirmed that. But I am sorry I can’t disclose anything more about the situation.”

“Understood. It’s about the case after all.”

“Then, we shall talk about you and your sister. I believe you have seen the comments of the public, right?”

Mu Qiqi thought for a while and nodded. “Mm-hmm. It’ll be a lie to say I haven’t.”

“About the comments about you living a happy life now while your sister is suffering, what do you want to say about them?”

“I don’t think much about it. I just can’t understand it. Have the netizens forgotten about the past? First, my sister killed my grandmother and blamed it on me. Then, she stole my results and killed our mother. Why shouldn’t she suffer? Does she deserve a good life?” Mu Qiqi gave her answer naturally.

“Then, I want to ask you another more sensitive question. What do you think about the fact that you and your sister have two separate fathers?”

Mu Qiqi looked at the journalist. She was indeed really good at picking the right question.

“To be honest, I’ve wanted to run away from this before. Because I know it will bring harm and shame to the people around me. But this is not something I could have made a decision on. What can I think or do about it? The one thing in this world that we can’t do is choose our birth. I tell myself that I have a good family, I have a loving husband, and I have supportive friends. My life is wonderful, so I don’t need to care about the mockery. But, when it is put on the table, I can’t ignore it totally. Because in the end, did I do any wrong?”

“Are you scared?” Fang Lan asked seriously.

“Scared?” Mu Qiqi was startled for a few seconds. Then, she said, “The corpse is not my sister, but the news is spread to the whole nation. I feel like I have suddenly become an unforgivable murderer in just one night. You ask me if I am scared. I can tell you I’m not. Why should I be? If I am, won’t it mean that I have granted the wish of the person who wants to destroy me? I shouldn’t let him get what he wants.”
